"Rebirth" Jasmine Sheng Pu-Erh

Straight out of China, we introduce a brand new jasmine pu-erh. "But wait, oh masters of tea," we hear you cry, "won't the powerful strength of a pu-erh annihilate the flavor of a delicate jasmine?" And we say to you, excellent question!

In the case of the Rebirth, actually no! This is what's known as a "Sheng" pu-erh, lesser known and less common than the "Shu" pu-erhs, known for their powerful earthy tones. Sheng pu-erhs are smooth, light, and delicate, like the difference between green and black teas, almost.

So, in the case of this one, this sheng pu-erh is traditionally scented with jasmine petals as it ferments and dries, giving the soft earthy tones a floral scent that hits the nose and tongue. It does come in brick form, so while we have the tools, you might find yourself in need of a pu-erh knife, which we can provide.
